  1. That's 14 times more than I looked at it. Didn't dislike it, just didn't think to go there because it was off to the side.
  2. I had Tim Calhoun replace my extractor and firing pin stop with Ed Brown parts. I ordered the Hardcore extractor instead of the Match. The stop was actually allowing the extractor to clock a little, so he hand fit an oversized stop. Not sure if it was enough to impact reliability, but I wanted perfect function. Just an FYI. Could have been the way the slide was cut.
  3. What a stupid move!
  4. Obviously, we haven't perfected it yet. This on was on the way to perfection until I screwed it up. No biggie... there will be another one along any day now.
  5. Looks like the county is going to ignore the order anyway... http://www.tennessean.com/article/20120530/NEWS06/305300069/County-says-won-t-order-halt-mosque-construction?odyssey=tab
  6. Drink... sin... confess... repeat. What's wrong with that?
  7. The Reverend Mac's Religious Forum. I like it!
  8. Yep. I know you post a lot of stories where somebody has been shot, or seriously needs to be . That's gun related in my book.

    Mil Dot and MOA

    My worst may be my Browning X bolt in .243. Haven't played with it enough to document it, but it moves as the barrel warms up.
  11. Especially if they get a few shots off, and one or two connect.
  12. See post 11. $150 scope that will do everything you need to shoot out to 600 yards. Read the reviews while you're at it.

    A thick barrel is also changes point of impact less as it heats up.
  14. Christian bashing, Mav? It's a gun board. If you decide to preach about ANYTHING, you will get opposing opinions. Hell, you'll get lots of opinions if you're not preaching. It's what we do If you cram an opinion down my throat, I may disagree strongly. I don't think I'm bashing your opinion... just responding with equal force.
  15. I take the pills when I'm soothin' tha clapus
  16. I don't know how to say penicillin in Latin

    Mil Dot and MOA

    Shorter barrel=slower bullet=more arc in the trajectory. Got nothing to do with accuracy until the bullet slows way down. It does require more skill in compensating for bullet drop.
  18. That's really close. In fact, I suspect the Apex kit might be a packaged version of it.
  19. Crushed walnut shells. I think they package it for birds too
  20. I'm thinkin' you'll bounce back
  21. I've been using regular Flitz metal polish for awhile (not for tumbling). Read the reviews on the Midway link. I use walnut lizzard litter from the Petco.

    Mil Dot and MOA

    Yep. I thought they were cool when I first saw them. Now, just give me a Mil dot for unknown ranges, and a plain old crosshair for known ranges.
  23. They were heathens... kinda like us
